Product Description
Dive Rite Classic XT Wing - 16" Elbow Dive Rite # BC5400-E-16 The Classic Series is an adjustable lift wing, sporting an optional Gusset Control System cord that can be used to further streamline the wing for wreck diving penetrations or smaller size doubles. The GCS is not a bungee wing because it does not restrict air flow; instead the GCS promotes added streamlining and buoyancy control, yet allows the wing to inflate to its full capacity. Available in a single or dual bladder, the Classic Series offers 65lbs/27.2kg of lift, accommodating two 104ft3/17L back mounted cylinders and two 80ft3/11L stage bottles. The Classic XT is for use solely with double tanks. Divers may choose from our value-driven and durable 1680 ballistic nylon EXP material or our SuperFabric® brand technology XT material that we’ve married with a 1000 denier Cordura® inner shell to create an armor-clad outer bag that is impervious to damaging pinches and cuts. Both the Classic EXP (Model BC 4400) and Classic XT (Model 5400) are further enhanced with a heavy-duty, 210 denier nylon laminated bladder. They are backed by our WORRY-FREE LIFETIME GUARANTEE and are made exclusively in the U.S.A. As a part of our modular BCD system, it can be matched with either a TransPac® XT, Transplate or any metal backplate and webbing harness.
